Hi All, I know the subject has been covered for other platforms, but this one (HPE NonStop TNS/X) has a few quirks.
1. The platform does not support gcc at all. Many have spent years trying unsuccessfully to port gcc. 2. The platform does support a solid and POSIX compliant implementation of c99 and C libraries. 3. There are windows-based c99 cross-compilers that work well for the platform. 4. There is also a windows-based linker for the platform. 5. Cross-compiled gcc code will not run on the platform. 6. The platform is x86-64 bit, but it runs big-endian. 7. Intermediate and executable object files are in ELF format, but with some variation of values in the header that the linker handles. Is there a direction that I should take in looking at the port? Try native or cross-compiling? I need GO because there is a really important package written in it that I want to have on the platform. It is too big to port to another language, but that might be my backup plan. Am I out of luck or is there hope for this?
